We are currently transforming our clinical pharmacy service across NHS Fife, as an integrated pharmacy service across hospital, primary care and specialist teams, under a new Head of Pharmacy for Clinical Services. The aim is to join up care for our patients across transitions of care and ensure the best outcomes for patients with their medicines.

Opportunities have arisen within the acute hospital setting in our new elective orthopaedic centre at Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy. We are looking for a Senior Pharmacist and an experienced pharmacy technician registered with the GPhC with proven post qualification experience to join our pharmacy team.  You will also support the development of the clinical technical team and the expanding clinical pharmacy technician role and have sessions to enable you to maintain your checking qualification within Queen Margaret, Dunfermline and Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy
